I need a quick opinion con'
i wanted to let u guys knw i ordered stainless steel headers for my civic. thanx for helpin me choose... now i wanna knw... my header n cat r option racing n my cat-bak is spyder auto, (none off ebay) will i pass da smog test with dat?

but its an option racing cat n inside it looks straight hollow like a test pipe but da inside walls got some type of filter lookin thing idk, but i called option n dey said i will pass da smog test but i'm on here to make sure...

From ur description, it sounds like it's just a resonator. If you can look through the pipe from one end and see out the other, it's not a cat. Cats have a bunch of screen type filters in them which you can't see through. You will not pass emissions.

it looks like a resonator but it ain't. i bought it off andysautosport.com when i went on da cat listing, i went under option racing n found it there. i said da same bout da way it looked so i called andys n dey said its a cat, plus i called option.

plus 1 side has da 3 bolt on section dat bolts to da cat-bak, (which did with no problem) n da other has 2 with da inner edge bent inwards for da gasket on da downpipe. plus it had 2 bolts where da O2 sensors go but i got 1 n goes on da header.

This is a picture directly from andysautosport.com and of the Option Racing Hi Flow Cat.
The little picture on the top right hand corner is a shot looking into the cat. You can see there is a little screen looking thing inside. That is what cleans the exhaust allowing you to pass emissions. You cannot look through a catalytic converter.
Like I said before, if you do not see these screens in there and you can see straight through the pipe, you WILL fail emissions.
